Social inclusion
All individuals should have the right to be an equal member of society, with the same human rights regardless of gender, disabilities and social status.
WE FIGHT FOR A WORLD WITHOUT POVERTY AND EXCLUSION
IM is a Swedish development cooperation organisation working to achieve a world free from poverty and exclusion.
We are working in the following areas:
Economic inclusion
Everyone deserves to be in control of their own economic life and have the possibility to earn their own income, own land and afford an education.
Civil society and civic space
The civil society plays an important part in a democratic society. It represents and defends marginalized groups while raising awareness.
Humanium Metal by IM
Humanium Metal is transforming illegal seized firearms from governmental weapons destruction programmes in regions affected by armed violence into non-lethal commodities for peace. The income generated with Humanium Metal is re-invested into communities affected by gun violence, aiming to break the vicious cycle of violence and poverty. Through the initiative the private sector, right-holders, civil society, consumers and governments are connected in a virtuous cycle for peace and security.
Where we are
IM collaborates with partners in fifteen countries in six areas of the world. Here you will find more information about our work in all countries.
